Legal, Bench stands briefly to celebrate Legal, Bench stands briefly to celebrate
“This is an example of legal action by bench personnel. The bench personnel stand up to spontaneously celebrate a play on the floor. This is a legal act, and no delay of game penalty would be assessed. Note that bench players and assistant coaches may legally stand up to spontaneously celebrate a play on the floor, but, they must then sit back down on the bench, in a reasonable amount of time.”
